THE STORY CONTINUES

Weaving the Story of the Valley

Part Two of a Three-Part Interpretive Institute

Please join us for this special program that has been specifically designed for leaders, decision-makers, and interpretive staff in Blackstone Valley partner organizations. You need not have attended Session 1 to attend Session 2 and/or Session 3.

At the next workshop, we'll be discussing the craft of interpretation, developing an interpretive menu for your site, and matching sites and stories to valley-wide themes through collaborations.

For this session, we are pleased to have Jennifer Smith, Site Manager at Roger Williams National Memorial. Jen has extensive interpetive experience and training. Prior to her current position, Jen was the Acting Superintendent at New Bedford WhalingNational Historical Park. She had been with New Bedford Whaling since 1998. She holds a BA in English Literature from UMass Dartmout and a Master's degree in Community Planning from the University of Rhode Island.
